Victoria’s Secret | The Story Behind Steve Nash

The Brooklyn Nets' stunning hire of Steve Nash catapulted the Hall-of-Famer back into the NBA spotlight for the first time in years. Which got us thinking about the legendary career Nash put together on the court way before "coach Nash" became one of the most surprising phrases of 2020. So how did the South African-born, Canadian-raised kid become one of the best point guards in basketball history?

Even as a Kobe and Lakers fan, Steve Nash is my all-time favorite point guard. My heart hurts when his Lakers term didn’t pan out, not to mention the bogus suspensions in 2007 that essentially robbed him of his title. Hopeful he can me things work in Brooklyn

Great video as always, these player profiles are fantastic. Steve Nash and Allen Iverson are to the 00s what Ewing, Barkley, Stockton and Malone are to the 90s imo. Great players who were staples of their respective eras but tend to get overlooked due to never getting a title.

I think Nash's humility in particular and his overall personality/smile in general are the essentials that will get Nets the Eastern Conf. Champ

Remember those days when MVP trophy was hoisted and shared with the fans instead of closed televised award shows, Pepperidge Farm remembers..

[@MaseIngGrace]

I don’t comment on YT often, but so happy I found this and feel the need to share. Steve Nash is the GOAT of my NBA fandom. As a kid from Newfoundland where the love for Raptors, Celtics & Lakers runs deep, I became a SUNS fan in 1996. The ‘03-‘10 Suns were my favourite team of all time, and even though I was a HUGE Kobe fan, Nash’s should have won at LEAST 1 championship in that time. Thank you Mark Cuban, and FUCK the Spurs. We should have won at least 1 ring ☀️

[@louloop9137]

FIBA games in Manila 2016, I was waiting for Tony Parker to sign my Spurs cap and photos. I approached him respectfully but got denied 2x with his manager stopping me on the 2nd try. I was dissapointed as a Spurs fan. After that, I saw Steve Nash, Canadian team consultant and asked for a photo. He obliged with no hesitations at all and got to have a photo 2x because the first one was blurred lol. I was a fan of him since the 2009-2010 season vs the Lakers and was rooting for them to win the series. Very approachable guy. Good luck Coach Nash 🙏🙌

I remember, when Steve Nash play with The Phoenix Suns. It would be the only game I want to watch , because of the way he play the game. Superv ball handling ang passing, to his team mates, he make all his team mate great. He has very good shooting, ,good control of the ball and so smart, that you think , that you don't always need to be tall and strong to play the game.

[@stardustring]

Yes, I was lakers fan 2010 finals between Lakers and Phoenix was one of the best games I seen. I'm Lakers fan, Kobe fan,so I was rooting for my team, but Steve Nash was amazing 😍.

The Nets are never going to win anytime soon. Kyrie Irving is crazy and selfish, James Harden is only concerned with stat padding a phantom fouls, he never going to get a ring with his holy ghost flops, and Kevin Durant is ready to run off to a winning team to ring chase. I never thought those 3 selfish fools were ever going to win a ring. The Nets gave up their future for Harden, now they're stuck with Ben Simmons.

Mistake by the NBA commissioner when he announced the pick. The school name is Santa Clara University, not University of Santa Clara. They made the name change in 1985, eleven years before this draft. I was a student there then and they made the change over the summer break of my sophomore year.

[@edgm.14]

AYOOO I knew he was 50-40-90 BUT not 4 TIMES almost 5 times where he shot *89.9% FT* 45% 3P 53% FG in 07. Imagine doing that while being a x2 MVP and dealing with spondylolisthesis a spinal disorder that can cause back pain. Larry Bird and Steve Nash are actual goats. Bird finished season 50-40-90 twice is a 3x MVP/Champ/All Defense 2nd Team/ 3P Contest Champ. Yes x3 for all. And also dealt with severe back pain. Injuring it more than once while falling on it and shoveling. Oh yeah and they both coached NBA teams
